Frogs in a pot, popping like they hot

Your freedom isn't being challenged here

Nope, it's outright being taken ... in broad daylight.

Explain How?

I mean...my freedom to associate with whom I choose was restricted for over a year by a happy-go-lucky local government. There's a strong push for mandatory vaccinations and vaccine passports, which most definitely violates the right to manage my own body and my own private personal data. I'm pretty sure going onto Twitter and openly admitting to being a solid conservative would torpedo my chances of working as an actor any more, which would somewhat indicate a free speech crisis is under way.

Obviously you have to let some slack in the line when crises roll around, but we're getting a little out of hand here.

Yeah twitter makes sense, but you can still associate with others, you can visit them, you can go out, the lockdown isn't mandatory, you won't be arrested if you leave the house, you can go to restaurants with friends, and I'm sure you'll be ok if you take the vaccine, a lot of people that live in my area have taken it, and they're fine. and anyway mandatory vaccinations aren't a new thing, most schools require kids to get vaccinated to be able to go to school. I have no idea whata vaccine passport is.

A vaccine passport is a paper that says you have the Covid vaccine so you can travel.

Ohhhokay, thanks.

I've no problem with Twitter censoring me, it's a private platform after all, but the way it's spilled over into the real world is disturbing.

Nah, our restaurants were closed unless they had a drive through, and I know for a fact most of the owners here weren't the folks making that decision. It felt like overreach to me. There are generally religious/medical exemptions to the vaccine thing for school, but those are for public schools anyways. So long as private schools are allowed to operate without needless government interference then I'm not going to go crusading against the public system.

I'll get any vaccine necessary for survival (I.E I get the tetanus shot because it's common sense to not want to die because you stepped on a staple, lol), but I'm in pretty dang good shape and in my twenties. COVID most likely won't kill me, so I'll take my chances with this one.

As detailed below, it's just a card stating that you got the vaccine. I've no problem with a private company requiring that you display one to patronize them, since it's their business. I just don't want a national mandate to do so because it feels no different than if I was forced to carry a card identifying myself as a Roman Catholic, or that I had gotten the HPV shot, etc. It's just personal information.

Ah well. C'est la vie.

Yep and while conservatives pointed out the connections and where all of this was going to lead from the get-go, each step of the way the collective Left SHRIEKED "Conspiracy theorists! None of that happening is what you THINK is happening!" All those leftists were wrong . . . as per usual.

Explain where this happened? Trump completely dropped the ball on Covid.

bruh just wear the stupid mask. do u want people to die? it’s seriously so easy. i don’t understand the problem

Hey mate, your guy said it would leave because of the "april heat". Not us.
